VMSC has predetermined billing rates that cover our operating costs. These billing rates are different for different levels of service. These levels are Basic Life Service (BLS), Advanced Life Support (ALS1 and ALS2). The level of care required determines the billing rate. These rates are in line with providers in the local area and accepted by insurance companies that are billed for these services. VMSC understands that bills associated with a medical insurance can be difficult to pay and that you may be receiving several bills associated with your situation. If you have questions about paying your bill, please contact our billing office.
Each insurance plan is different, but within each plan, there may be co-pays and/or deductibles that you are responsible for. VMSC has no control over the details of existing insurance plans and is not permitted to bill in ways that do not adhere to a patients’ plans. Our billing professionals will be happy to review your bill to ensure the proper billing details were provided.
